I'm with you, brother.
That's why I never run optimized executables - no symbol tables?? What are you hiding, son? Unrolled loops?? Kindly step the fuck back, thanks.
If the incubation period of cell phone-induced brain tumors is 20 years, then this study tells us nothing other than we need to check again in 10 years.
Then again, even studies do show increased tumor rates over a couple decades, the old truism applies -
If something takes longer than 20-30 years to kill you, humans tend to feel invincible to it unless someone has scared them sufficiently (look at how much of our society eats poorly, smokes, etc.)
Modern heart rate transmitters/monitors have some provision for coding so in effect they are not "broadcasting" the heart rate. I'm sure such systems are far from secure by Slashdot's standards but they probably rule out all but surreptitious monitoring.
If the school's intent is truly as benign as teaching students to monitor their own heart rate, then surely they won't mind buying 1:1 coded equipment (heart straps and monitors) and teaching the kids how to clear the data on the monitors.
For every level of abstraction whose mastery you think predicts greatness with all levels above it, we can undercut each other with levels lower until one of us is forced the conclude superiority on the basis of proficiency with an abacus.
When people make the "great programmers started with machine code" argument, my opinion is that they are often lamenting the wastefulness and lack of "machine sympathy" that higher-level languages and syntactic/semantic sugar facilitate.
Sooner or alter, anyone paying enough attention and facing a big enough programming challenge hits the limits of whatever programming candy (or teat) they're sucking on, but advances in software development tools and computing technology mean that most new programmers will never need to be weaned.
Electronics stores (only idiots pay retail), banks (only idiots would put their money in a financial institution), stock brokerages (only idiots would invest in equities right now), restaurants (only idiots wouldn't grow and cook their own food), public schools (only idiots would trust educators willing to live on state salary), emergency rooms (only idiots get acutely sick).
There's a lot of light for those moths out there.
And it doesn't take alcohol to make someone an opportunistic criminal. For many so-called victimless crimes, all it takes is reasonable confidence you won't get caught and many of us betray moral flexibility with surprising regularity. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to speed to work while talking on the cell phone so I can take an extra bagel from the breakfast cart without paying and surf the web until my boss gets in.

Time and time again nature proves that evolution is borne of conflict, not concord.
By induction, don't even bother getting up from your seat to go to the airport.
P.S. Also please to be sending more matches.
IE adds ActiveX control to post XML. Who cares?
So will the Scranton branch be absorbing Stamford?
Who will Jan find to run it?

Let's get THIS out of the way.
The S is for Super and the U is for Unique.
Three, if you include keeping the doctor away.
Superman, is that you?
More than 50% of all branch merges end in conflict.
With currency exchange rates fluctuating so frequently, Blizzard has to allow for the possibility that in Russia, World of Warcraft subscribes to you.

The lesson here is that scheduling is PGC-hard.
While liability is a concern, the medical industry needs to see that there is a real bright side to analysis of medical data as well.

I'm normally not a fan of government getting their tentacles into everything but I suppose in this instance turnabout is fair play.
